Bennett Starts and Finishes With Best Hand

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Michael Bennett
Michael Bennett

Al Singletary started the action with a raise to 80,000 in the cutoff. Michael Bennett was in the big blind and moved all in for 605,000. Singletary called and the players turned their cards over.

Al Singletary: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Michael Bennett: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Bennett lost the lead for a brief moment on the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} flop but turned a straight {j-Spades} and had his opponent dead to a chop. The {8-Hearts} completed the board and Bennett now sits with 1,300,000.

"I Need Help"

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Thomas Roe
Thomas Roe

Thomas Roe moved all in for 430,000 from early position and Lou Ojeda isolated by shoving over the top for 495,000 from the button.

"I need help," Roe said even before the cards were turned over, and that turned out to be the case.

Thomas Roe: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Lou Ojeda: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The {j-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop didn't do Roe any favors while the {10-Clubs} turn kept him drawing live. Unfortunately for him, the {6-Hearts} river was a blank and he hit the rail in 32nd place for $6,260.

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Gregory Jennings
Gregory Jennings

Gregory Jennings moved all in for 570,000 in middle position and got called by Brett Johnson in the cutoff. The remaining players folded and it was off to the races.

Gregory Jennings: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Brett Johnson: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Jennings paired his ace right away when the flop came {a-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}. The board completed with running kings {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}. and Jennings got the double up.

Pease Sends Johnson and May III Home

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Justin Pease
Justin Pease

Brett Johnson moved all in for his last 175,000 in the hijack, Jasper May was next to act and put all of his 425,000 chips in the middle as well. Justin Pease had both players covered and moved all in over the top from the button. The blinds got out of the way and Pease was in good shape to score a double-knockout.

Brett Johnson: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Jasper May: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Justin Pease: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}

There was no sweat after the flop as Pease flopped top set {5-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. The {2-Diamonds} turn locked it up. The meaningless {6-Diamonds} river completed the board and Pease eliminated Johnson and May.

Singletary's Elimination Brings Three-Table Redraw

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Al Singletary
Al Singletary

Action folded to former MSPT FireKeepers final tablist Al Singletary in the small blind and he moved all in for his last 405,000, which Erik Koch called from the big blind.

Erik Koch: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Al Singletary: {3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Koch was out in front and wound up with two pair after the board ran out {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. Singletary's elimination in 28th place for $6,260 means the final 27 players will now redraw down to the final three tables.
